 Testing of 'Bacteria House' has been rigourously carried out, by both Momotaro, and MTK (manufacturer). Mr Manami (President of MTK) is a Koi hobbiest, and as such, built three ponds built to enable lab testing of endless 'blends' of Bacteria House, and other medias. Bacteria House in it's original form was originally made for treating effluent water, and won the accolade of "Best Filtration media in the World" three years ago. The 'blend' that Momotaro use however, is very different. Each tray of the Showers at MTK is split into 5 divisions. Each of these contains a different media. The pond testing is carried out by filling the ponds with Koi, and then maturing the systems. Periodically, a sample is taken from each media (60 types, most being differents 'blends' and forms of Bacteria House), and sent for lab analysis. The medias are tested to find which bacteria strains are present, and for bacterial counts. |
